Chapter 84

Su Ming felt a pang of heartache.

A second ago he felt he was quite rich, but the subsequent expenses would directly cost him more than half.

In fact, this was also Su Ming being ungrateful for his blessings.

He was trying to forge a Diamond-grade weapon with Second-Rank cultivation, so of course the expenses were high.

If he were Fourth or Fifth Rank, then using Diamond-grade weapons would be the norm, and the materials dropped by fierce beasts of that period could easily support the expenses when sold.

Su Ming belonged to the category of spending money across ranks, so of course the expenses were high.

He put this piece of steel into his pocket.

Afterward, he immediately took out a skill scroll.

On the ancient yellow cover, three large characters were written.

Dragon-Slaying Art!

Su Ming immediately scanned the information of this scroll.

[Dragon-Slaying Art - Sword Technique Skill Scroll (Diamond-low-grade)]

[Level Restriction: 40]

[The flood dragon strokes its whiskers, the world mourns; take my sunken sword to suppress the evil worm!]

[Effect: A sword strike carries golden sword Qi and high armor-piercing damage; its power is extremely domineering!]

[Affix - Dragon-Stopping Force: When facing monsters with huge bodies, the power of this move is increased; the larger the enemy's body, the greater the power increase!]

[Limit: 1000%]

Su Ming’s eyes showed slight surprise.

This sword technique actually had an affix effect!

Skills rarely have affix effects.

Generally, only equipment has affix effects.

Skills with affixes are all powerful and special skills with terrifying power.

Su Ming immediately crushed it and learned this skill completely.

Suddenly, countless secrets poured into his heart.

Su Ming mastered it directly.

He had the Origin Sword Body, which allowed him to break through the level restriction and learn it directly.

"I have a Diamond-grade active sword technique!"

This would be Su Ming’s strongest active sword technique skill at the moment.

He walked out of the ice cave and casually activated a Mental Spirit Blade.

He shaved off a piece of the ice on the ground and condensed it into an ice sword.

Afterward, he held this sword and suddenly raised his hand to slash!

Swish!

Boom!!!

An extremely heavy, loud noise erupted into the sky.

The dense mist in the sky sank a few inches along with this sword strike!

A terrifying golden sword Qi light swept out from in front of him.

It formed a majestic, massive semi-circular golden glow.

It directly covered a radius of several tens of meters.

This sword Qi was scalding hot and evaporated quite a bit of the surrounding mist.

After a long time, it dissipated.

Su Ming looked closely.

The ice sword in his hand had shattered, disintegrated, and melted into water because it couldn't withstand the domineering sword Qi of that strike.

"Terrifying... too terrifying."

"With this sword, I might really be able to slay a dragon with ease."

He muttered.

At this time, he smelled the aroma of meat.

His T-bone steak was ready.

He walked quickly back to the cave and scanned it.

[Roasted T-bone Steak - Medium-Rare (Bronze-low-grade)]

[The outer skin is crispy, and the inside is full of meat juices; it can be called a supreme delicacy, and the protein it contains is double that of beef, which can replenish the energy an ordinary person needs for a day.]

[After eating, increase Strength by 10 points for 10 minutes (the same type of food cannot have repeated effects)]

Su Ming blinked; he didn't expect it to have a grade!

This was just a piece of the most ordinary steak, yet he had roasted it into a Bronze-low-grade delicacy.

It seems his cooking skills are getting better and better.

Most importantly, Su Ming had roasted eight such steaks.

It was definitely enough to replenish his consumption for today.

He only added the most basic seasonings like cumin, chili powder, and coarse salt, and he could create such a delicacy.

This was inseparable from his precise mastery of heat.

Many people think that roasted meat must be brushed with oil to lock in the internal juices, otherwise it will be very dry.

But Su Ming had extremely rich experience; he used a slow fire to roast, burning the outer shell until it was crispy, so that the internal meat juices couldn't escape, almost using the meat's own juices to "stew" the inside.

Moreover, the outside of the meat block also had natural meat fat, which could self-seal the meat juices; in fact, there was no need to brush oil at all.

Using this almost purely natural cooking method, Su Ming could make any ingredient delicious and would never let his tongue suffer.

He immediately gorged himself.

Soon, he swept the steaks clean and fully restored his stamina to its peak state.

Afterward, Su Ming took out some equipment.

Previously, Su Ming had killed two Third-Rank players.

One was a Flame Fist Master, Zhuo Shuhong.

The other was a male Enchanter.

Both of these people had been killed by Su Ming using a charged "One-Instant Sword Draw."

He had obtained all the belongings of these two people.

And he had leveled up twice, reaching level 26.

This couldn't be blamed on Su Ming; they were the ones looking for death.

That male Enchanter didn't seem very rich.

But Zhuo Shuhong was truly wealthy.

This woman had a slim figure and a somewhat enchanting face; he didn't know how she had obtained her money.

Perhaps by selling her body.

These things had nothing to do with Su Ming.

As long as they were in his pocket, they were his things.

Her pair of gauntlets were Platinum-grade weapons.

No wonder they looked like flowing flames, gorgeous and extraordinary.

Su Ming took out all their things and laid them out in front of him.

He uniformly used [All-Things Sublimation] to upgrade them.

[Sublimation successful!]

[Sublimation successful!]

[Sublimation successful!]

[...]

The beautiful and pleasant sound made Su Ming grin uncontrollably.

The value had increased by more than several times!

Selling these things would be at least another million Arrival Coins.
